What's the rule when using être instead of avoir for the auxiliary verb? Many conjugation tables for voir specifies only avoir.

Please have a look at the following link, which lists the verbs that are conjugated with the auxiliary "être":

I see. So for this case, être is used because voir is used as a reflexive. Good to know. Thanks.

Could an acceptable answer have been "voir soi-meme", or does that sound wrong?

[Remy]

No, that sounds wrong. You have to use the reflexive verb "se voir".

• E.g. "Je me vois." (not "Je vois moi-même.")
